Glypure® research summary


Clinical studies demonstrate that Glypure® increases the keratin denaturation temperature, confirming its strengthening and thermal protection benefits, and outperforms other AHAs even at low concentrations.

In research conducted by TRI Princeton, Glypure® was proven to:

  • Provide superior lubrication in the hair, resulting in less friction and entanglement during brushing
  • Reduce hair breakage and improve manageability
  • Decrease stiffness of healthy, bleached and relaxed hair, providing long-lasting softness

A Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) study of Glypure® on healthy and damaged hair indicate Glypure® provides an increase in keratin denaturation temperature, confirming Glypure®’s efficacy in strengthening the hair shaft and protecting hair from heat damage.

When compared to other AHAs at 1%, Glypure® showed the greatest increase in denaturation temperature.
